The Brompton Hospital for consumpuves,
in London. reports that over hfty people
out Of every hundred consumptives, are
victims OF constipated or inactive kidneys
Consumption Is one OF our national dis-
eases, and tho above report goes TO prove
what has often been said in our columns
during the last eight years, that kidney
troubles are not only the cause OF more
than half OF tho cases OF consumption, Dut
OF ninety out OF every hundred other com
mon diseases. They who have taken this
position, made their claims after elaborate
fnvestiRation, and their proof that tney
have discovered specific for tho terrible
and stealthy kidney diseases, which nave
become so prevalent among us, is wiso ana
convincing.

hold what was fact twenty years ago

Hence they ignore the original cause OF dis

They dose the patient with quinine, NOR

case, while tho kidneys continue TO waste
